Stuttering of transcoded HDJust like the Sony Bravia users, I see stuttering of some transcoded HD material on my Philips TV, e.g. 1080p and orginal m2ts format.The format is transcoded by mencoder to a mpeg program stream (needed for Philips TV).I have tried multiple options in networking (not likely cause, I have 100Mbs cabled network), lower mpeg quality setting, optimize dual core (I use a fast E8400 dual core processor and 2GB memory with XP) etc.In the FAQ AviSynth/Mencoder trancoding engine is recommended with dual core, but this does not solve it.So I do not yet have a clue on how to cope with this. => Which options should I use to reduce/avoid stuttering in real-time transcoding? => How can I analyse where the bottleneck is?

Sound disappears after a short timeOn some transcoded HD movies the sound disappears after a small period (e.g. a minute).My settings in PMS are 2 ch stereo. => Any idea on the cause of this disappearing sound?

Hi, new here, but have been using the PS3 Media Server v1.11.356 for a while now with my Sony Bravia KDL-32W5710 on Ubuntu 9.04 without any problems.

However, I have just upgraded to Ubuntu 9.10 and now the TV isn't recognising any videos. Has anyone else come up with this problem & found a solution? I've tried reinstalling ffmpeg, mencoder & mplayer, but it hasn't made a difference.

A friend had problems streaming full HD with 100mbit, with gigabit it was working flawless. So try with a gigabit switch or similar.I have the same problem as you do on my 100mbit net, but only on higher quality HD (1080p and/or large files). 720p works fine.

when I use the PS3 Mediaserver with my Sony Bravia KDL 46z5500 everything is working until after 3 or 4 minutes the Video and Audio starts to studder. The transcodebuffer is allways full then an the bitrate goes down to 655 kb/s. Also if I want to shutdown the PS3 Mediaserver, the java engine doesn't shut down. I installed Java for x86 and x64.

The server is a Windows 2008 x64 with 6GB Ram. I use the PS3 Mediaserver version 1.11.366

First you need a network connection between your TV and server machine , 100Mbit should suffice (WE5 has 100Mbit etherenet adapter) you can try WiFi but i was not satisfied with it - the bandwidth was very limited.

After you download it you will have to modify the Bravia conf to let the renderer name match your TV name i use the following:UserAgentAdditionalHeaderSearch=46WE in Bravia5500.conf i believe other setting may stay as are (but you may want to put bandwidth limit to 100mbit here).

Please let me know if you need help on this.

Please remember this Bravia has only 100Mbit ethernet adapter so you will have to adjust some other settings appropriately.
